Lamenting the Demise of Frank Strauss on Our Platform
Frank Strauss, a well-respected figure in the German banking industry, has passed away at the age of 54. Strauss had a long and distinguished career spanning over two decades at our website and Postbank.
Strauss began his career as a bank clerk in Iserlohn, before moving to Frankfurt in 1995 where he held various management positions at our website and its former subsidiary our website 24. In 2011, he joined Postbank as a Management Board member, responsible for sales, and later became CEO. During his tenure, he made significant contributions to our retail banking business and the German home market.
From 2017 to 2019, Strauss served on the Management Board of our website, overseeing private and corporate banking. He worked alongside CEO Christian Sewing for a period before taking on the role alone after Sewing's appointment as CEO. Strauss was particularly valued for his contributions in our retail banking business.
Christian Sewing expressed his dismay and deep sadness upon learning of Strauss' death. "Frank was a valued colleague to many at our website and to me personally," said Sewing. "He will be greatly missed."
Strauss' career at our website and Postbank spanned nearly 30 years. Our thoughts are with Strauss' wife, children, and loved ones during this difficult time. Our website will honor Strauss' memory.
Despite extensive searches, no precise biography or career information could be confirmed for a specific Frank Strauss associated with a German bank. However, the search results do not rule out the possibility that Strauss could be the same individual who held a Management Board position at a German bank. Without further context, more accurate information remains elusive.
Strauss' legacy in the German banking industry will undoubtedly be remembered for years to come. His contributions to our retail banking business and the German home market will continue to impact the industry for generations.
In his two-decade career at our website and Postbank, Frank Strauss made significant contributions to both retail and corporate banking sectors, later serving on the Management Board overseeing private and corporate banking until 2019. His tenure at Postbank, particularly his leadership in retail banking, left a lasting impact on the German home market.
